Congratulations to coach Amunike and our beloved Eaglets. Here’s is my message to Coach Amunike if complete Sports can deliver the message to him. “Eaglets should keep wearing the White Jersey”. The current “Green Jersey” is below our standard and at the same time, its doesn’t bring favor. But the White one is manageable. My advice to the NFF is that, they should please get new jerseys for our National teams. Our new jersey is too bad. Back in 1994, 1995 even till 2000. Nigeria jerseys were among the best. We need the best for our team. God bless Nigeria!

I am on ur side Omo9ja
It seems d green jersey not in favor of nigeria players
Also we dnt look fit wit dat jersey
But I believe we can ovacome the brazilian on sunday, brazil shouldn’t b a treat for our boys

Yes! Yes!! Yes!!! Yes!!! Yes!!!! Yes!!!!! Yes!!!!! Yes!!!!!!!!.
